Can anybody tell me which bolts I should buy to go though the standard metro plenum into the carb?

Thanks

From memory they are 5/16 unc, you'll need to put a tape across the plenum to work out what length you need.

If I can find my set we can compare them for purchasing some more.

If something is worth doing, it's worth doing half of.

Yep,

5/16 UNC, standard ones are about 2 1/2 inch long.

Minivanless, but reluctantly happy living with the decision. There'll be another one day.

Being the lasey fooker that I am, and not wanting to walk to the bolt shop 2 minutes from my house. I've just got a pack of 5 of ebay.

So if anybody else needs a couple, then pm me your address...

My bolts arived today. TBH 2 1/2" is a tad short, only 3 or 4 threads in the carb with no washer. Might be better with 2 5/8" or 2 3/4".

Another thing to add to the regular checks for the van....
